Optimise the performance of your dust collector with replacement filters from Camfil

Why should I switch to retrofit filters instead of buying filter elements from the original equipment manufacturer? First of all, that´s a legitimate question as usually original parts are perceived as the first choice providing the best performance. But what if these products fall short of expectations, putting your operators at risk and affecting your processes in terms of increased downtimes for maintenance? Hereinafter we have listed some reasons under which circumstances it make sense to think about changing the filter supplier:

• Performance: Filter elements can significally affect the performance of any dust extraction system. But if the filtration rate is not right or the media is packed too tightly, it can work against you because much of the media is unusable for filtering because it is blocked from the airstream.
• Filter life: If the filter media is unsuitable for the application and the processed material, the dust can quickly clogg the filters. In this case filter changes are required more often as the filter element cannot collect and release the expected amount of dust when pulse-cleaned.
• Operational costs: Reducing operational costs is key in every industry. Therefore short filter lifetimes are counterproductive, require additional maintenance intervention and can cause downtime of your extraction system and thus your production line.

Camfil offers a wide range of high-quality filter cartridges and filter plates in different length and diameters as well as with different flanges and gasket options. This allows a direct-fit replacement of the current used filters of the most common dust extraction systems on the market such as Donaldson, Keller, AAF, Nederman, Kemper, Plymovent, Dustcheck, ESTA, Kappa, WAM, Mahle and many more.
